Snow Shoeing!

About two weeks ago we decided to get out and enjoy the snow. We went snow shoeing for the first time. Both kids were over excited all week waiting for Saturday to go. We rented the snow shoes for the whole family and set out. Oh, it felt so good to get out and enjoy the outdoors and try something new. Part of our plan is not just to eat healthier, but to be more active as a family. We want our kids to live a healthy, active life and we know that their good habits start with us.

At the beginning of the trail

It was a cold, crisp day but we were bundled up nice and warm. Alexander was over-the-moon excited that they had snow shoes to fit him as well. We had originally planned on pulling him in his sled because we didn't think they had shoes his size, but it was awesome that they did!

On The Trail

The trail was pretty busy with a mix of people snow shoeing and skiing. Christian loved snow shoeing but the cross country skiers peeked his curiosity. We will try skis next time around.

Just starting out on the trail.

Taking a quick photo break

Me lagging behind to get a picture of the 3 of my boys.

The kids wanted to trek through the deeper snow and sprawl and fall into the snow. Lots of fun!

I was at the Bulk Barn last week and decided to try out one of their rice blends. It is Aztec Blend #1656. It includes colusari red rice, long grain brown rice, split peas, and amaranth. I had no idea what some of those ingredients were but figured anything's worth a try, right? When I got home I looked up colusari rice & amaranth. Colusari rice is a burgundy-colored chewy rice that has a light nutty-popcorn-like flavor and amaranth is actually an herb.

It was very simple to prepare & actually pretty good. The peas were a little crunchy which added nice texture. I was surprised that both kids really liked it.
